Hi everyone,
I've been using the site for a few weeks now, but didn't introduce myself as I didn't know how long I would stick with it (I have a terrible habit of starting these things with good intentions - then quitting within a fortnight!).
Anyway, having stuck with it and lost 4lbs already (yay!), I am finding it much better and easier than I had thought.
I'm sure I will have tough days and will fall off the wagon occasionally, but I really do think that this time I can manage to shift the weight. Now... all I have to do is make sure I go to the gym tonight!
Cheers,
C

Well done on your weight loss so far and for sticking with it.
I have sent you a friend request, i think any journey is easier with friends than doing it alone :flowerforyou:0 -
Welcome to MFP! Congrats on the 4lbs. Good luck to you!!0

Hi C,
Welcome! I've only been here a short time myself. I could have written your letter. I tend not to stick with things. Let's make a deal to stick with it together.
Good job on the four pounds! Chip away at the weight loss. I'm trying to focus on five pounds at a time instead of the BIG picture.
Hang in there.

Hi,
Thanks for the nice messages. I have now accepted the friend requests. I think it will make it easier if I have some support. My partner is great but since he doesn't have to lose any weight, there is only so much support and understanding he can give.
Oh - and I did make it to the gym last night! Didn't manage to do much but it is a start.
